People like to talk a lot and get excited..
Lately as a late bloomer I've been getting into the outdoors through snowboarding, surfing, and bicycling (skateboarding not as much lately). I'm interested in finding ways to bring that world in a unique way, they are cool but they're sort of bro-ified sometimes, maybe we can do new things with these cultures.
Bestest Most Current Things
- Animated Stuffed Animals that Move and Talk - Repurpose a bunch of stuffed animals that move and talk to greet people in the SudoRoom.
- My Little Polo Pony 3D printed sets of cute pretty polo ponies to better understand concepts of watching a polo game (marking, blocking moves) without having played it (it takes several years to even begin to play and horses are pretty scary)
- WomenNonBinaryCoding
Past
Movement - a group focused around transportation projects at SudoRoom. It can be cars, it can be bikes... yeah! Trains - because we need a wiki about trains
WakeyWakey Learning foreign languages other stuff using voice apis
Wyd Excuse me... what are you doing? mini video project
Help with CyberWizardInstitute
Art at SudoRoom
CoedAlgorithms doing all we can to make algorithms beautiful and poetic instead of torturous and agonizing
Philosophy
I go to hackerspaces to make things and hack. If I'm not hacking at a hackrrspace, I must ask myself, Why am I here?

Older Projects
- SudoKit Learning for everyone--not just kids but also old people, young people, even small animals!inspired by a cool collage teacher met at RPS Collective, the sudoroom hackers who like to teach, learning and animasl
- GameHacking
- Today_We_Learned - Oct 11, 2014 - Creating FUN Games with Open Source! Calendar link

- CircusArts - I'm starting a juggling group (self taught) and amateur circus arts group to the sudoroom and great omni. I don't have a lot of time but maybe we can make this happen!
Doge needs more projects!

- ArtMakingParty event we put on after the Oakland First Friday
- Super Focus Club SudoRoom is a hackerspace, a place created for hacking. Lately it's gotten very tough for hackers to actually hack here -- we're getting pulled to do publicity for outside companies, social work, and more instead of actually hacking. Let's get back to the basics.
- HackDisability part of a greater cyborg human category for dealing with disabilities and aids such as crutches, coke bottle glasses, etc.
- Wallpaper
- SudoSquare

Interests
I like to build things. I prefer hack nights and doing stuff to tech talks.
Personal
- I love living in Oakland.
- favor collaboration and doocracy. Please work with me on the sudoroom github - http://github.com/sudoroom
- beginning apprentice snowboarding and skateboarding, journeying by hanging out with various dysfunctional pugs
Random Stuff
- One of my friends Joe Reagle Wrote a nice book on collaboration in Wikipedia. He outlines a lot of interesting situations and ways people resolve conflict on Wikipedia. It might be useful to people in an open source hackerspace as well. "http://reagle.org/joseph/2010/gfc/"
- When I lived in Berlin I would often eat at Volkskuechen, which are these punk rock dinners that cost a $1. The emphasis was on making food, not buying it from a restaurant, or scavenging by dumpster diving. The food was usually better than what you got in restaurants. The focus was on creating cheap, healthy ways to eat food together. There were no book deals or bloggers or "thought leaders" people just did it http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuntenhaus_(Berlin)
- C-Base in berlin themes itself as a crashed spaceship. Maybe sudo room would be interested in creating some kind of grand narrative. http://www.c-base.org when I think of sudo i think of grumpy unix sysadmins who look like the comic books store guy from the simpsons. maybe it could be like elvis!
